Lawyers at a hearing in Colorado argued that former president Donald Trump should be barred from appearing on the state's ballot in 2024 under the 14th Amendment due to his role in the January 6 Capitol riot. Trump's lawyers disputed this, saying voters should decide if Trump can run again. The hearing featured testimony from a congressman and two police officers who were at the Capitol on January 6. They described the riot as a violent "terrorist attack" and said they feared for their lives. The lawsuit seeks to invoke a section of the 14th Amendment meant to stop Confederacy supporters from gaining office after the Civil War. Experts are divided on whether it applies to Trump.
